Angels
If men were angels, no government would be necessary.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
With any luck, Heaven itself will resemble a vast used bookstore, with a really good cafe in one corner, serving dark beer and kielbasa to keep up one's strength while browsing, and all around will be the kind of angels usually found in Victoria's Secret catalogs.
Reputation is what men and women think of us; character is what God and angels know of us.
It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.
We shall find peace. We shall hear angels, we shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds.
